Glycerine, also known as Glycerol, is a colourless, odourless, viscous liquid. It has a thick, syrup-like consistency and is sweet-tasting. It is highly soluble in water and alcohol but insoluble in oils. Glycerine is often transparent or slightly yellowish depending on its purity.
Common uses of Glycerine:
- Sweetener and Humectant: Glycerine is used in the food industry as a sweetener, preservative, and to maintain moisture in products like candies, baked goods and snacks.
- Alcoholic Beverages: It is sometimes used in alcohol production to smooth out the taste of certain liquors or in low-calorie drinks.
- Antifreeze: Glycerine is used in some antifreeze formulations because of its ability to lower the freezing point of water.
- Lubricants: It is used in making lubricants due to its viscous and slippery nature.
- Glycerine is used in the textile industry as a softening agent for fabrics and to help in the production of various synthetic fibres.
